Title: Your Two Wheeled Motorcycles - What have you ?? -- Pictures
Post by: Kiwi on February 20, 2013, 03:59:58 pm: As it's getting to that time of year again, just wondered how many on here also owned a motorbike.

It would be nice to see what you have and also know where you go riding, during the summer :happy2:

Post by: Baz300 on February 20, 2013, 09:21:36 pm: This was my first big bike when I passed my test in 2005

Sold it when my son was born.

Then bought this a few years ago

Sold it due to lack of use.

I'm looking at getting a bike again but not sure if I want another sports bike, would prefer something that I can do long runs on without getting tired wrists and a sore back.

Why a 98 R1?! I had an RVF just like yours but with White wheels, sold it to buy my R6. Wish i could have afforded to keep it, future classic! Mine was a 99 T reg so one of the last ones

Ill get some pics of my bikes up over the weekend
